Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

Lin Shuyun naturally didn't know where her third aunt lived.

However, Jiang Changtian pointed out the way: go west, the third one in the third row.

In the villages here, the courtyards are mostly arranged in rows of several houses, so they're quite easy to find.

When Lin Shuyun arrived at her third aunt's house, the door was half closed, and she could hear the sound of a child being beaten inside.

"You wild monkey, didn't I tell you not to go into the river? What if you fall into that deep place? Are you going to make us cry our eyes out? I told you, but you didn't listen. I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"

Lin Shuyun pushed open the door and saw a five or six-year-old child standing naked in a washbasin filled with water.

The third aunt held a feather duster in her hand, cursing and whipping the child's bottom. The child cried and screamed for his parents.

Seeing Lin Shuyun come in, the third aunt stopped hitting her, and the child immediately stopped crying and sat down to cover his little bird.

"Oh, it's Changtian's wife! Come in quickly."

"Third Aunt, what's wrong?"

Lin Shuyun entered carrying a cloth and casually struck up a conversation.

Auntie San said angrily, "It's been hot lately, and I caught this kid going swimming in the river with some of the other boys in the village."

"Several incidents have happened there before, and several children have drowned. But these kids just don't learn their lesson. No matter what the adults say, they won't listen and they still sneak off. He's so much younger than those other children. What if something happens to him?"

"Since he loves playing in the water, I'll let him play in the basin all day."

"Stand still and don't come out!"

The third aunt picked up the feather duster. The child in the basin still had tears on his face. He had originally wanted to get out, but then sat back down.

Lin Shuyun couldn't help but laugh out loud, "This method is quite ingenious, but staying in the sun for too long will cause heatstroke."

"You're right, I'll move it over there." Auntie San moved the wooden basin a little.

Then he invited Lin Shuyun to sit on a bench in the courtyard.

Then he asked, "What brings you here?"

“I’m busy at home and don’t have time to make clothes. I know that my third aunt is the best at needlework in the village, so I’d like to trouble her to make two outfits for my husband and two outfits for the elderly. I’ve brought the sizes with me.”

Lin Shuyun spoke in a soft, sweet voice that was pleasant to the ear.

Auntie San's anger subsided upon hearing this, and she laughed, "Changtian told you, didn't he? That child has the sweetest tongue, and her needlework is far better than mine."

"Okay, I'll take the job. You can come and pick it up in a couple of days."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Third Aunt. I'll go back and take care of my husband now."

Lin Shuyun didn't linger, said a few nice words, and then left.

As soon as Lin stepped out the door, he heard a young woman seemingly coming out of the house to complain.

"Mother, you agreed so quickly. There's still a lot of work to do at home. Where do you find so much free time to make clothes for others? Making them at night will waste lamp oil."

Third Aunt's voice was quite loud, "Shut up, what do you know? This cloth can make four sets of clothes and still have two left over. Your man's clothes are all torn to shreds, so we can make some for him instead of buying new ones."

"Oh my, this Jiang family's daughter-in-law is really generous, giving so much! But she didn't say she would give it to us. Mother, you must have thought of it yourself, right?" The young woman looked at the cloth, which was not cheap at all. She would never normally buy it.

"Shut up and go about your business. I'll keep an eye on this little rascal. He'll learn his lesson this time."

The third aunt was too lazy to waste words with her daughter-in-law and had already started working in the yard.

Lin Shuyun, who was outside the door, overheard this.

I thought to myself that this third aunt was quite clever; she really didn't intend to ask for the rest of the cloth back.

When I got home, I saw Old Xu squatting in the shade, cleaning up the dead rabbit he had brought.

Upon seeing Lin Shuyun, he said, "Let's eat this tonight, or it might taste different."

Actually, he was just thinking about the spicy rabbit head he had for lunch.

Lin Shuyun had no objection and said, "It's still early. I'll go fix the roof and then tidy up for dinner."

"Girl, this isn't the kind of work a delicate young lady like you should be doing. Get me a ladder, I'll go up and fix it." Old Xu said, getting up to find a ladder.

"At your age, with your old arms and legs, if you fall and something bad happens, I'll be completely taken advantage of by you. Go and rest." Lin Shuyun waved her hand.

There was no ladder in the house; she could climb up the courtyard wall.

The roof is badly damaged; there's no way to stand on it. Anyone who goes up will fall.

Lin Shuyun went up and took a look, then dismantled all the parts that didn't work, and then came down and found a lot of wood to rebuild it.

It doesn't look very nice, but at least there are no holes, so it won't leak when it rains.

Judging from the weather forecast, it's estimated to rain tomorrow, otherwise there wouldn't be such a rush.

Once the rain stops, she will find a bricklayer to fix it again.

Old Xu had finished processing the rabbit. Seeing that Lin Shuyun didn't need his help, he went inside to talk to Jiang Changtian.

"This girl is all talk and no action. I've lived for so many years and I've never misjudged anyone. You're lucky to have married such a good wife."

Jiang Changtian kept his head down and remained silent.

It's really good, but it's a pity...

Seeing that he didn't respond, Old Xu looked through the window and saw Lin Shuyun go into the kitchen, so he hurriedly went to help.

He may not know how to do other things, but he can do everything from starting a fire to picking vegetables.

Dinner was still rabbit, with vegetables and rice, but this time it wasn't spicy; it was braised rabbit, which Jiang Changtian could eat.

Although Old Xu was still thinking about the spicy rabbit, the braised version smelled delicious, and he could hardly stop drooling.

Just as the food was ready, Coal Ball meowed at Lin Shuyun's feet.

"Where did you go, Coal Ball?"

When she came back, she didn't see Coal Ball and thought it was hiding somewhere sleeping.

Look at all that dirt and the injuries; he must have been fighting outside.

Coal Ball was in a good mood and meowed at Lin Shuyun, "Meow, I went to fight for territory and taught a lesson to that arrogant guy."

It will tell Lin Shuyun after it snatches that blade of grass, that it hasn't snatched it yet.

"You lost the fight?"

Seeing that Old Man Xu had left, Lin Shuyun reached out and treated the coal ball for a while, and all its small wounds were completely healed.

The coal ball bristled, "Meow meow meow, I didn't lose!"

Lin Shuyun couldn't understand, so she stroked the coal ball's fur and said, "It's okay, you're still young. Eat more and you'll be able to fight when you grow up."

Coal Ball was indeed hungry, too lazy to argue, and went to eat braised rabbit.

Xiangde let out a series of meows.

They went out again after finishing their meal.

The coal ball was clever and intelligent, able to find even rare and precious materials and the silver hidden by the Xu family, so Lin Shuyun wasn't too worried and let it be.

……

……

It started raining in the middle of the night.

The raindrops, pattering on the eaves and leaves, sounded like a lullaby.

Lin Shuyun slept soundly while holding Jiang Changtian, and then, after a long time without dreaming, she had a dream.

She dreamt of a handsome young man tied to a pillar, his eyes filled with hatred and rage.

Standing in front of the boy was a middle-aged man dressed in purple whose face was obscured, holding an iron rod in his hand.

"Young general, you have quite the pride. Let me see just how tough your bones are!"

Then he smashed the boy's kneecaps one by one.
